The Packers do not plan to tender restricted free agent LB Jamari Lattimore.

It's a bit surprising because Lattimore has been an effective special teamer and super-sub on defense, but the Packers believe he's worth closer to the NFL minimum ($645,000) than the lowest RFA tender price ($1.389 million). The Packers haven't ruled out re-signing Lattimore, but he's headed to the market.

He'll be placed on injured reserve, ending his season. A fifth-round pick, Abbrederis was in the mix for the Packers' No. 5 receiver job. Abbrederis will be 11 months removed from ACL surgery for training camp next year.
